However the School Authorities and the Principal reserve the right to refuse admission to a student who in their opinion may not be able to cope up with the standard of studies and syllabus in the School or that the student is of poor health or character which would affect his/her or other’s studies and behaviour . In all such cases the decision of the School Authorities and the Principal shall be final and binding on all concerned. Registration of a child does not guarantee admission.
